Spend an afternoon of beautiful songs, exquisite harmonies, virtuoso guitar playing, mandolin, pennywhistles and lots of laughter March 4 in Chemainus.
The Chemainus Seniors Centre is hosting a concert by Juno Award-winner Gary Fjellgaard and friends Saskia and Darrel Sun., March 4 at 1:30 p.m.
Tickets for Song of the Prairies are $15 and are available at the Chemainus Seniors Drop In Centre at 9824 Willow St. Call 250-246-2111 for more information.
Fjellgaard is at the peak of his career. Songwriting and performing does not get any better than that. He is touring energetically all across Canada and Europe with his wife Lynne and their Saskatchewan friends Saskia and Darrel.
Fjellgaard is sporting a new album and new songs, as are Saskia and Darrel. Fjellgaard produced a new CD called The Collection, with some of his beautiful old classics recorded acoustically, while Saskia and Darrel just released an exciting new album called Songbirds, which is hitting the airwaves across Canada.
All three artists keep it real — they write songs about real people and events. They present a collection of heartwarming songs with sweeping melodies that everyone (young and old) can relate to. And if you ask them, they might even yodel in harmony.
